Meaningful songs?

[woala]

I was wondering if you have any meaningful (or maybe even lifechanging) songs that you've carried with you through life a long time?

I don't know how to say what mine are. There is so many beautiful songs out there, it's hard to choose. One that always been with me since I was around 12-13 is Sound The Bugle - Bryan Adams. I don't normally listen to Bryan Adams, but I heard that song in a movie (it's actually a soundtrack song to "spirit :the stallion of the cimarron" one of my favourite movies even today) and it always makes me wanna cry or something. I have lots of other songs, but that's the one that's been with me a long time.

the first song for me that comes to mind is Existentialism On Prom Night by Straylight Run. i can only sometimes listen to it without getting really emotional and upset.

other songs like that for me are
Brand New - Degausser
Gary Jules - Mad World
Kenny Loggins - Return To Pooh Corner
A Wilhelm Scream - The King Is Dead

3-4 years is not "a long time".

[Theseventhson]

I'm Not Okay by My Chemical Romance.

[jayromofo]

Not going to bother with the reasons but the first ones that come to mind
October Fall -If We're All Alone, Aren't We In This Together
Brand New - The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot
Bayside - Winter

Lots more, but it's hard to describe "meaningful" songs because there's lots of types of it.

And 99% of Thrice's songs are meaningful/inspirational and alot make you really think.

[Post-me]

[Jetka]

Most meaningful songs I listen to stem back to memories of the time, and they mean more because of what they mean to me due to it. It's not always lyrical content, sometimes it's just your favourite song at a given moment and listening to it will always let you remember the growth or change in your life.
Like for me I have a lot
Ten Falls Forth - Live Forever in a Day
The Lillingtons - Lillington High
Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Your Guardian Angel
Our Lady Peace - Superman's Dead
Bayside - Masterpiece
Silverstein - Giving Up

They're meaningful to me in their own way, although there is no lyrical reason

[Gwytherspoon]

The Cure- Just Like Heaven... being the most beautiful song I've ever heard and loses no meaing after the countless times I've been moved by it.

Alkaline Trio- Radio--.. I think its the honesty of this song that makes it so meaningful.. You can hear in Matt's voice and the strain that he really means what he's singing

They're meaningful songs, and I love the album.
But they're not all meaningful to me.

If you want a song that is encouraging about moving on after mistakes have been made, you need to check out Relient K's latest single called "Forget and not slow down" ..
